Sci-Fi Science: Physics of the Impossible - Episode Guide

Dr Michio Kaku reveals how we really could one day build a warp drive and set out on our own star trek. Could a loophole in Einstein's theory of relativity be the key for travelling the universe?

Dr Michio Kaku examines the possibilities of parallel universes which could have been caused by a Big Bang like ours; he also theorises how travelling between two parallel worlds would be made possible.

Dr Michio Kaku investigates the workings of a Death Star with its planet-destroying death ray that can vaporise a world in minutes and can be used as a weapon of mass destruction.

Dr Michio Kaku believes that teleportation is the future of travelling from one place to another; along with nuclear physicists and radiologists, he looks for cutting-edge technologies that will allow for a safe and seamless teleportation.

Dr Michio Kaku presents blueprints for creating a real-life invisibility cloak, just like the one in Harry Potter; he believes that atoms and light reflections might be tricked into making the wearer invisible to the human eye.

Dr Michio Kaku draws up blueprints for a working time machine that will let us visit the past and travel back to the future.

Dr Michio Kaku is on a quest to build a spacecraft that can travel across the universe; he wants to prove to the world that it is not just a sci-fi dream, but can also be a reality.

Dr Michio Kaku investigates the possibilities of creating a real-life lightsaber: using cutting-edge technology, bundled light needs to be transformed into pure energy that can be kept under control.

What was just a fantasy a few decades ago is now a reality: artificial intelligence robots are here to make human lives easier. Dr Michio Kaku designs the perfect robot while disclosing how smart robots can threaten humanity.

Dr Michio Kaku uses cutting-edge technology and research to draw up blueprints for the creation of a suit that would bestow the wearer with real-life superpowers.

Dr Michio Kaku is on a mission to prove how humans can use cutting-edge technology to build and use flying saucers, which is one of the favourite vehicles of sci-fi.

Dr Michio Kaku investigates how force fields can be created with the help of nanotechnology or magnetism that can provide an armour to spaceships from enemy and asteroid attacks.

Dr Michio Kaku investigates the possibility of humans surviving on a different planet; for Earth 2.0, he comes up with crazy ideas like giant solar mirrors, floating cities and a barrage made of an asteroid.

Swarmbots search the galaxy for habitable planets, human DNA is broken down into ones and zeros and beamed light years away. All part of Dr Kaku's plan for galactic colonisation.

Earth is under constant threat from asteroids and comets that could destroy the planet. Dr Kaku finds out how a rogue star could be detected, assessed and eliminated.

Dr Michio Kaku draws up ambitious plans for the construction of a new solar system. Details involve a giant shell encircling a star, with a new stellar civilisation living on the inside.

The aliens are coming! It is the cry at the heart of many sci-fi movies, but what would we do if an alien race really did invade? Earth must be prepared - and Dr Kaku has a plan.

Dr Michio Kaku is on a quest to make the first contact with extraterrestrial life; with multitudes of planets in and outside of our Milky Way galaxy, experts believe it is only a matter of time before the first contact takes place.

Dr Michio Kaku is on a mission to build a Star Fighter, a ship that is capable of destroying the moon-sized Death Star and for that, he gets in touch with some of the finest Pentagon strategists to get help on his mission.

A black hole could destroy the solar system, so how could a human survive its gravitational pull and tunnel through space time itself? Dr Kaku investigates.

To understand how the human mind could control a cyborg army, Dr Kaku looks at existing technology that enables amputees to move prosthetic limbs by thinking.

As the rapid processing power of computers develops it looks likely that artificial intelligence will soon exceed our own. What will this mean for humanity's survival?

Dr Michio Kaku believes we can actually build `Star Trek's' fictional holodeck. Join him on his mission to create an imaginary world indistinguishable from the real thing.

Dr Kaku wants to create a transformer that can turn into any shape, moving with strength and stealth. What technologies can help him realise his vision?
